I'm a ruined man professionally my obit is Mr shows entitled "26 by are Columbia Workshop presentations over on Sunday evenings at 9:30 -idea is a variety of good adult Mr Corwin said "and I think there's a place for it I can exploit forms and techniques not given a break In tadio Instance like to do the Book of Esther in an operetta-think of the lust vengeance murder plots to assassinate and the love stories like to do a murder story because been done as well as it can be on the air My story would have all the build-up and suspense but st the end discover there hadn't been any murder in

others to tap a piece of metal and wood plink-plank That was the mirror turning to wood in these shows trying to shift the emphasis to story and acting and music Music hasn't been used enough dramatically mean I'd support two lovers in a scene with some schmaltz on the cello but I might let the music tell the story without any actors at all And I certainly could kiss the the initials for
